Your Most Recent General Toy Purchase - 2024 Edition

CM’s Gutto Kuru Megazone 23 Part 3, Eve Tokimatsuri. I wish CM’s didn’t skip Eve from Parts 1 & 2, especially Part 1 where the characters are designed by Mikimoto.- 737 replies

it’s been a while since I’ve watched Zero - There were CF 0Ds in the show but never noticed if any wore the super parts. I hate to think it’s Bandai bandai-ed in some way, somehow leaving the slots there when they used the 0S’s CAD file as starting point for the 0D. Yet it’s not impossible thought haha

If not mistaken, the one who did that beautiful 0D is also a member here. @EastwindS2k. Here’s the link to his thread of his other works: Depending on the platform you are viewing this forum on, the pics might show up as thumbnails, so gotta click on them to appreciate in full.

Appreciate your thoughts & pics @Raikkonen I don’t think the jointed thruster on the booster is a preamble to having the Ghost being its own accessory, because the thruster is a feature of the combined valk & booster. Nice call on the 0D’s mysterious slots at its legs. I always assumed the parts from 0S (and now the 0A) will fit, but never tried that before so now knowing that they don’t fit is a surprise. It has to be purposely designed to be there, because it’s not as if Bandai reused the 0S’s leg mold for the 0D, as the 0D’s leg sculpt is different.

Amiami 1/8 Strike Witches Francesca Lucchini Another random buy, again of whom I have no idea. But it’s cheap for a scaled figure, and I’m curious to see the quality of an Amiami produced figure.- 737 replies

Re: the Ghost booster tilt. Here's an old pic (previously unused, didn't like many aspects of it) of Arcadia's 0A with the Yamato booster. It doesn't really tilt, if any, at all. But agree with @Chronocidal, the tapered look, top intake plus the other lines & shape of the Ghost booster do give a strong impression of an upward tilt. I had always thought with its landing gears down, it has an even more pronounced tilt, but when viewed directly from the sides it's not really there.

Yup.. Mandarake standard's pretty high, so small dings are considered 'package heavily damaged' lol. Anyway, Amazon JP is already going very near that 14k price as well for a new one (remember to take 10% off listed price on account of domestic tax).

Sounds like already justified. I could never justify the Renewal Armor Parts at the aftermarket prices, & came close to pulling trigger on the v1 Armored set just to have a set & to display in Fighter mode. I'll get this Revival for sure but the v1 option is still on the table for me as a second set for static mode display.

So, SHF Guile just got released. And the reviews have been pretty meh.. The standards have dropped quite a bit compared to the other SHF Street Fighter figures, and it's disappointing to see such especially with competition from Jada Toys. One would think Bandai would have put in extra effort to justify their higher MSRP, but it looks to be the other way around.

Oops I totally missed the YF-29 (chalk it down to I'm just so uninterested in it, it was totally out of my mind lol), and I think you are right on the other factors.

If not mistaken, the KYD store caters to Japan domestic only.

If we look at just after the 3 minute mark, the knee allows the lower leg to bend backwards 90 degrees. If not mistaken, the legs on previous VF-0 releases can’t bend that far, and if so, Bandai made this stealth change for the 0A.

Awesome & thanks for sharing the tread.

If PO goes up in June, we should have a release by Christmas. It's pretty much foregone that it'll be WWM.. I just hope it's a normal release and not a P-Bandai item.

Great pics! I feel this particular one above shows how great it was to be a Macross collector back in 2006, and how great it still is about 20 years later. -
The one we’ve been waiting for since Revival 25 started. More info to come later.. https://x.com/t_features/status/1796180028297826621
